River of Home
A river of cobalt blue edged in sunlit yellow flows beneath a deep crimson sky, while a dark orb hangs overhead like a moon. Smooth, sweeping strokes give it a calm, flowing rhythm. A meditation on belonging and the places that shape us.
River of Home is a painting about memory and belonging: the river that runs through a childhood town, and the way home keeps flowing through us long after we leave. The blue is laid down in one continuous, confident sweep, then edged with yellow so the water seems lit by late sun. The dark orb overhead adds weight and quiet, like a moon over familiar streets.
